"They did not notice" is one hell of an assumption. I do not believe it. A more accurate assessment would be they deliberately ignored the fact that the perp had become unconscious and then dead.

All I am saying is that the minimum we can say for sure is negligence. The guy did in fact go unconscious in their custody. It is also true that they didn't change their behavior when it happened. It is also true that they did not render immediate aid to an unconscious man in their custody. Those are all true. Saying that the cop knew the man was unconscious and deliberately did nothing is assuming intent to kill. I am not willing to go there without proof. I am willing to say that they were negligent though.
